A new method to compute the symplectic structure of a quantum field theory with non trivial boundary conditions is proposed. Following the suggestion in \cite{ho:gnus, ardalan}, we regard that the boundary conditions are second class…

The well known conformal covariance of the Dirac operator acting on spinor fields over a semi Riemannian spin manifold does not extend to powers thereof in general. For odd powers one has to add lower order curvature correction terms in…

We consider a free massive spinor field in Euclidean Anti-de Sitter space. The usual Dirac action in bulk is supplemented by a certain boundary term. The boundary conditions of the field are parametrized by a spinor on the boundary, subject…

We exploit the connection between quantum dot Dirac operators and $\overline\partial$-Robin Laplacians. First, we find a graphical relation between their smallest positive eigenvalues, which allows us to deduce a recipe for translating…

We consider the self-adjoint operator $H=H_0+V$, where $H_0$ is the free semi-classical Dirac operator on $R^3$. We suppose that the smooth matrix-valued potential $V=O(<x>^{-\delta}), \delta>0,$ has an analytic continuation in a complex…

Let $D_t$, $t \in [0,1]$ be an arbitrary 1-parameter family of Dirac type operators on a two-dimensional disk with $m-1$ holes. Suppose that all operators $D_t$ have the same symbol, and that $D_1$ is conjugate to $D_0$ by a scalar gauge…

We consider free higher derivative theories of scalars and Dirac fermions in the presence of a boundary in general dimension. We establish a method for finding consistent conformal boundary conditions in these theories by removing certain…

Non-local boundary conditions for Euclidean quantum gravity are proposed, consisting of an integro-differential boundary operator acting on metric perturbations. In this case, the operator P on metric perturbations is of Laplace type,…

In this paper we consider a Robin-type Laplace operator on bounded domains. We study the dependence of its lowest eigenvalue on the boundary conditions and its asymptotic behavior in shrinking and expanding domains. For convex domains we…

We reformulate all general real coupled self-adjoint boundary value problems as integral operators and show that they are all finite rank perturbations of the free space Green's function on the real line. This free space Green's function…
